We are fooling ourselves...

[Alto1]

Like I said last week.....coaches are giving up......even before the team is beat.......heck even before the 4th quarter starts.

Fulmer may give em a raise!!

 

[VolforFootball]

You shouldn't pick on the stupid and vulnerable.

lol

 

[Boston Vol]

I just don’t understand how we are this bad. I don’t even understand it at this point. There’s no excuse

Lack of talent on the field. Lack of talent on the sidelines and in the booth.

 

[Volatility]

Thank goodness we gave him an extension...

 

[VolFreakJosh]

If this game doesn’t change your mind about Pruitt then nothing will.

He’s not the answer.

 

[tampavolsfan]

6 years??? That’s way too low. A good coach needs needs at least 10 years to compete with the likes of Kentucky and Vanderbilt. Maybe we’ll be back by the year 2050 in Jeremy Pruitt’s 33rd year as head coach.

At this point, I really don’t want to argue with any Vols fans because of what we are all going through, but so many coaches prove this post wrong.

 

[Eastknox865]

Nice call on 3rd you idiots.

3rd and 5 3rd and 7 we run the ball

 

[mpfvol]

I think Pruitt wants to be fired now so he can go back to coach D at Bama and have UT pay for it and Laugh about it to everyone dam Bama plant

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Well they've quit.. Again

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Another no fight 2nd half

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

3rd and 5 3rd and 7 we run the ball

They've quit

If we think this HC and staff can bring us back to national relevance. I was a huge fan of the Pruitt hire, but now, with a solid body of work under his belt, I no longer think he can get it done here.

Saddened by what TN football has become.

I'd charge a third of what he is making and do just as well

 

[ftsandersvol]

We got a lot of problems. Exactly how many I’m not sure because math is one of mine.

 

[VolRage]

But, but, but Pruitt’s boy JG is the team savior or else he wouldn’t be the starting QB. Pruitt is a genius. Holding BM and HB back in favor of his boy JG, not allowing them but a few reps each practice.

Seriously, Pruitt and his boy JG have sucked the life out of this team.

 

[77' Vol]

We have good athletes, but they are obviously not being coached/utilized properly. Many of the plays Bama is running are working because they have our guys way out of position. Our defense doesn't stand a chance. No excuse for penalties and turnovers.

 

[Wezcoast]

at least pull all the starters and let the rest get some reps. This is futile.

 

[Behr]

Quotes like this is why we’re stuck in mediocrity.

Enough with the excuses.

Lol, get out. As long as we continue to hire the type of coaches we like to hire, it doesn't matter if we hire 1 every year or every 5 years.

Enough with the ignorance.

 

[plentygood]

Continue to hire low caliber coaches and continue to get low caliber results. That’s Tenneseee

 

[utvolz98]

Pruitt will not have a "solid body of work" until he has at least 4-5 of his own recruiting classes that are 100% his. So far he has 2.

All signs point to Pruitt being shown the door as soon as financially possible.

 

[wmcovol]

Down 28 in the 4th Qtr and he’s still playing this guy. Gosh that’s a serious mental illness

This. Either he is stubborn, trying to get fired, or perhaps Fulmer is giving him advice and he's proving a point. I just don't understand why we keep getting these jokers

We are not fooling ourselves. I called this shot the day the stupid Gump was hired. Hell I called it the day Fulmer was hired.

Dumb@$$ comment. Many, many first year coaches say “hi”

The problem is we wait til the bottom falls out and there is nothing in the cupboard. The new coach gets his year 0. Recruiting can’t be sustained. Rinse and repeat.

If I could like this x1000 I would. Absolutely. We are like Dr Strangelove, determined to ride that bomb all the way down.

Yep. It’s pretty plain to see what we have in Pruitt. Dudes a terrible head coach, and that idiot Fulmer extended him lol...

 

[Vol Catdaddy]

Where do we go from here? I mean how many coaches are we going to go through? Man, I really do not care anymore. I tend to get more things done on Saturday now. Its pretty much like the NFL to me now I am more a fan of the players tha. Teams.
